In 1970, 850cc Minis with engine number 85H101on had a remote type gearbox case. This was fitted with a ‘magic wand’ type gear lever which was held up by a plate underneath.
This type of gear change requires a detent spring, which in time can lose its effectiveness or even break.
Fortunately, Mini Spares has the answer and can offer a detent spring for these pre-rod type gearboxes as part number 2A3647 at just £2.16 incl. VAT
